Catalogo Completo - Argentine Civil Register 1938 - 2016
From the limited stock held by the Sales Dept. I obtained my copy of the above book. (I am aware the sales team are trying to get further copies.) Michael Magnusson, one of the three credited compliers, is to be congratulated in making this book available to us here in the UK.
Within its 748 pages there is data on both the LV- and LQ- registers for the years 1938 and 2016 which probably satisfies the needs of most civil aviation historians. Whilst the print size is small I found it legible.
The book contains 100s of photos assembled in blocks after each registration blocks (LV-A etc) 12 to a page. Many of these photos are in the very rare category. However, their full value cannot be fully appreciated because of their small size and in part because of the print process. I would have preferred to have them included on an enclosed CD or DVD, rather than in the book.
Being a book produced and printed in Argentina it is not surprising Spanish is used throughout. For non-Spanish speakers, such as me, the book would have benefited with the inclusion of an English translation of the few introductory pages and translation of the main terms used throughout the tabular material.
These are minor criticisms and do not distract from the value of this book.
